Ketubah Artists – one of a kind

In the last post about Katubah Artists, I wrote about three artists whose business is centered around the Ketubah products. Whether they sell additional wedding products, or prints of their original art, they are still identified by many as Ketubah Artists. This time, I wanted to share with you several finds that I have collected in the last few months. These are artists and designers whose main body of work is not specifically related to Ketubahs, but they were commissioned to create a Ketubah to couples who love their art.

Oded Ezer

Oded Ezer is an internationally known Israeli typographic artist, logo and type designer. I am not an expert at all on anything typography, but you got to love Oded’s innovation and artistic flair in any of his type creations and design projects. Take for instant his “I ❤ milton” poster, whose structural play with letters of Milton Glaser’s iconic I ❤ NY logo is brilliant (although this post is about Ketubahs, I just had to show you this poster!)

"I ❤ milton" by Oded Ezer

Oded’s Ketubah combines 5 languages – Hebrew, Yiddish, English, French and Spanish – by itself a very unique feature and a challenge for any designer. The header letters seems like they are jumping into place while we look at them, dancing and filled with motion. Although monochromatic and using text only, you got to love this Ketubah!

Claudine Hellmuth, a mixed media collage artist, author and illustrator, developed a unique playful and hip style, combining illustration with pasted black-and-white head shots of her clients. Most of her custom commissioned artwork depicts daily life scenes. But she had the opportunity to create also a Ketubah featuring the bride, groom and their cat ! The text was provided by her client, both in Hebrew and English. A small nice touch was when Claudine sent the pen she used for the line drawing to be used when signing the Ketubah.

After all, this is one of the most important pieces of art you will ever buy, a symbol of your love and unity, which will proudly decorate your home in a prominent place.

Hi Moshe,
I just stopped by your blog after I saw a comment from you on of the blogs I read, Art Marketing Secrets. I was wondering if you were the same Moshe who I’ve been seeing now and then on LinkedIn and it turns out it is!
I love your Ketubah’s and I especially like how you are using watercolor in a unique way as to make it look like a mosaic. A lot of people don’t realize that ancient Jews used mosaic a lot in their work so they are getting a Ketubah with an extra little connection to the past.
Anyhow I thought I would say hello and thank you for the list of 66+ websites for Artists. Being a Judaica artist myself it’s always nice to connect with folks like you and see what you’ve been doing.
Sincerely,
Shoshanna Bauer

Thank you so much for the kind comments
You are right about the mosaic effect of some of my paintings. I wrote about it in one of my posts, about my obsession with squares and what influences me, and one of the things is architecture and archeology, especially old mosaics. I even thought once or twice in the past to learn how to make the old style mosaics, they are amazing!
In one of my next blog posts I am planning to write a bit more about my Zodiac Ketubah, so stay tuned.

Also checked your site and your art is beautiful! Shows that it comes from the heart!

Thanks for your comment and question. I am not directly affiliated with these designers. My blog post was just curating amazing Ketubah works that I found online, loved, and wanted to share with the world out there

You could contact each one of them for specific question on their designs.

As for my designs, the Giclee prints are sold on Ketubah.com and I sell the originals.
